Cooking Doula in North London

Cooking Doula for deliciously healthy homemade meal in your own home in North London

I have had a personal interest in nutrition since I can remember, and being Italian meant I was always in the kitchen cooking with family.

Due to my own food intolerances and allergies (I am coeliac), my family and I always had to be creative in the kitchen. And because I love food I was motivated to find tasty and healthy way to satisfy my pallet and my soul, despite what at first seems to be a restricted diet.

I am now proud I can cook healthy and nutritious home-cooked meals with ease and I can offer that to you too. I am already the family cook of a few growing families, and I will be happy to discuss your requirements too.

I can cook fresh delicious meals in your own home. We are a particularly good match if you or a member of your family has food intolerances, allergies, is coeliac or simply wants to try a gluten and dairy free, but delicious diet.

I am very familiar with low carbs and low glycemic index (sugar) diets. Yet a diet that can include yummy snacks, cakes and desserts.

Here is how it works

We chat about your requirements

I create meal options to suit the dietary needs and tastes of your family.

We agree how often you would like me to come to your house weekly, fortnightly or monthly to prepare healthy homemade meals from scratch.

I can organise online shopping and food delivery for you.

I then put on my ‘cooking doula & family cook hat’ and start cooking amazingly healthy meals in your kitchen.

I leave your fridge and/ or freezer stocked with nutritious meals that are perfect for lunch or dinner.

And of course, I clear up when I’ve finished so there is absolutely nothing for you to do except enjoy the dishes I’ve prepared.

Your own family cook and cooking doula is particularly good in the post-partum period, when you are recovering from the birth or when you’re breastfeeding. At this time there is plenty to do and think about besides shopping and cooking! Yet what you choose to eat at this time is vitally important for your baby’s wellbeing as well as your own.

having a cooking doula can greatly facilitate family dynamics, leaving you to enjoy your time together even more.

Hiring a family cook is also important in any moment of life when you need to satisfy the nutritional needs of a growing family, but don’t have the time to dedicate to cooking.

I can create dishes designed around nutrient-dense foods that support the needs of your family, post-natal recovery or a breastfeeding mother.

And, as some of my clients say, there is something special about being cooked for!

Here is how much my cooking doula services cost

Even though I have nutrition knowledge and cooking experience, you have the added benefits that I am not a chef nor a nutritionist so my fee is cheaper.

Post-natally meat broths (e.g poached chicken in shitake broth) can be particularly nourishing, to create warmth and build ‘digestive fire’. Broths also support immune functions so you can be at your best for your new baby.
